The UCB is a world-renowned comedy theater and comedy school with live shows seven nights a week in Los Angeles. Tickets and classes on sale now.

We’re a free and open platform for theatremakers worldwide. We amplify progressive, disruptive ideas about theatre and facilitate connection between diverse practitioners. We function as a “commons”—a social structure that invites open participation around shared values. All of the content (essays, videos, podcasts) on HowlRound comes from the theatre community who chooses to participate—that means you!

Through magical moments at the Ahmanson, daring new perspectives at the Taper, captivating experiences at the Douglas, transformative educational programs, and artistic initiatives that help feed Los Angeles’s vibrant theatrical community, we put theatre at the center of it all.

Winner of 4 Tony Awards since its founding in 1980. See what's playing today in Harvard Square.
